Rights
Further clarification of the notes below, provided in November of 2011 by Frank Quinto:
Audience versions [of commercially released live recordings] are ok, but sbd/fm/tv/pro versions should not be allowed if they are commercially available.
On June 23, 2007 Frank Quinto, Smashing Pumpkins consultant, gave SP's OK for inclusion in the Live Music Archive:
"The Smashing Pumpkins live recordings can be uploaded to archive.org. The band is allowing archive.org to create mp3's / streaming derivatives from taper's lossless (.flac or .shn) seed files.
Live recordings only please. No Inner Ear Monitor (IEM) / Assisted Listening Device (ALD) sources. Shows recorded off of FM radio broadcasts / TV broadcasts are okay. no unauthorized SBD recordings. If you have a SBD recording you would like to upload, contact Frank at frank AT frankquinto DOT com first to get approval to upload it to archive.org. No profiting on any recordings. We reserve the right to take down any recording that does not fit this policy.
All Smashing Pumpkins live recordings are allowed to be uploaded to archive.org regardless of when the date of performance is (i.e. ALL shows are OK, not just the new 2007 performances.)
NOTE: official recordings from
livesmashingpumpkins.com are not allowed on the LMA
